Baby Update!

On the 16th of March we had an appointment with our specialist in Ogden. Everything looked okay in the ultrasound. Nothing had worsened and she was growing like she should be. We had to do a non-stress test, which measures the baby heart rate fluctuations through movements, contractions, and at rest. We now have to have the non-stress tests two times a week!! They just want to make sure that the baby is not under to much duress. We will still have ultrasounds frequently as well. I had quite the scare when I woke up in the middle of the night with a constant stabbing pain. Luckily after a warm bath it went away, but man preparing for labor . . . something you've never experienced. I just didn't know what to expect. I thought, "There is no way the baby can be coming now!! Too soon!" I really freaked myself out. However, I am getting to the point where being this pregnant is quite uncomfortable so I am almost ready to have this baby. :) Everything seems to be going really well.

  2. I'm glad they're keeping a close eye on you. It was good to see you last week. Yep, you pretty much have to reach that uncomfortable point or else women would stay pregnant forever. Good luck! Tell Brandon hi.
